The publisher of Forza Horizon 4, our pick for the best racing game of 2018, recently updated the game. In addition to adding several new cars, it also removed two emotes. While this wouldn’t seem like a big deal in and of itself, you begin to see what a bullet it’s trying to dodge when you look across at the legal tangle that is Fortnite, Epic Games, and the dance emote lawsuits.

An update on the Forza website simply says “The ‘Carlton’ and ‘Floss’ avatar emotes are no longer available.” Both emotes are similar to ones that have appeared in Fortnite, referencing the famous dance of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air star Alfonso Ribeiro and Backpack Kid, respectively. They aren’t the only emotes the two games share, but these two are now the subjects of lawsuits between their creators and Fortnite developer Epic Games.
